Chapter 22: The Man Who Sells Paintings

Gu Ziyuan was very surprised by Bai Rong's proposal, after all, Bai Rong was a woman, how could she go to the city to open a restaurant? It's not that he thinks that women can't do it, but he thinks that Bai Rong's proposal is not ordinary, after all, she is a fledgling little girl, and it will be difficult for a strong man to open a restaurant.

But when I heard Bai Rong say this, I let go of my heart.

The morning fog cleared, and two or three people led the slow but steady oxen to the river field step by step.

Everything on this road is so familiar, it seems to be leisurely and secluded, and only they know how sad they are.

"Actually, my mother-in-law is old, and I live well in this small village, and my mother-in-law is already very familiar with this town, so it's actually not bad here." Granny Pan didn't want to be a burden to Gu Ziyuan and Bai Rong, so she had to say so.

Bai Rong naturally did not allow Granny Pan to be left here alone.

"No, mother-in-law, if you don't go, Ziyuan and I will worry about you, after all, you are the only relative of the two of us." Bai Rong must take her mother-in-law away, after all, Granny Pan needs someone to take care of her when she is old.

Alone in this secluded and poor little village, if something happens, who will find out?

"Mother-in-law, think about it, Ziyuan misses you every time when he goes to school, and worries about you in class, can he still study well?" Bai Rong was still persuading, and Gu Ziyuan also said: "Mother-in-law, you can follow us, Ziyuan can see you every day when he thinks of you, if you insist on being in this small village, how worried should I be?" "What Gu Ziyuan said is also very good, and now their top priority is to bring her mother-in-law to Fucheng.

Granny Pan bit her lip, the gray-haired mother-in-law had been weathered, and looked at the two little babies in front of her with an expectant face, and her heart was soft.

In fact, it was not that she didn't want to go, but because she was afraid that if she went, it would bring them a lot of trouble.

Her body is not as good as before, if she was young, she could have helped them a little, but now she is like a burdensome character.

"Mother-in-law, think about it carefully, if you are here, Pan Dabao will not give up, we have given him such humiliation, if you don't do something, he will not be Pan Dabao." Gu Ziyuan's cold eyes narrowed slightly, and he said calmly.

What he is most worried about is that Pan Dabao's wolf-hearted and forgetful scum will be ruthless to Granny Pan.

Granny Pan is one of his most important relatives, if something happens to Granny Pan, it will be too late for him to regret it.

"Mother-in-law, if Pan Dabao bullies you and we are not here, you can only endure it." Gu Ziyuan lost all the smiles on his face and said indifferently.

Granny Pan knew that she had to go this time, and she didn't understand Gu Ziyuan's words. It's just that Gu Ziyuan's words made her a little sad, sad that Pan Dabao was so cold-blooded to her, so disregarded for family affection, and his mind was full of money.

"Okay, I promise you, you're right, the current Pan Dabao is no longer the child I like, some things should be cut down in two, cut the mess quickly. It's better than having you scared day and night. "Granny Pan's words are very sad.

It was really frustrating for her to have such a nephew.

It was already twilight, the sky was sparsely populated, and the occasional unknown bug flew around, including many annoying mosquitoes.

Gu Ziyuan tossed and turned in the room, and when he thought of Pan Dabao's ruthlessness, he trembled angrily, as a man, how could he stand by when he saw his beloved being bullied.

He silently decided in his heart to practice kung fu and strengthen his body.

Don't let others bully the people he loves.

He thought about it for a while, and then fell into a deep sleep.

Early the next morning, Bai Rong had already made breakfast, there was still a little meat left from yesterday, and Bai Rong used it to fry potatoes, and the shrimp skin bought in the town a few days ago was still there, so he went to the field to pick up a few handfuls of chrysanthemum, and fried the shrimp skin for a while.

I washed yesterday's dishes, and I forgot to wash the dishes when I was too tired to make a fuss yesterday.

"I think so, I smell it all in there, it smells so good." Granny Pan had already gotten up, and after washing up, she took out a few more nests from the kitchen and put them in the pot to steam.

These nests are all steamed, and they were made by Granny Pan the day before yesterday, and they were taken out of the kitchen when they suddenly remembered this day.

Because Gu Ziyuan tossed and turned yesterday, he got up a little late today, and after washing, he went to the kitchen to boil water, his clothes were dirty, and it was time to wash.

"These are all made for you, I haven't had a good meal in the past few days, and today's meal naturally has to be eaten in a variety of ways." Bai Rong served the porridge one by one while talking to Grandma Pan.

Gu Ziyuan soaked his clothes in a wooden barrel, told Bai Rong to leave some for him, and then began to wash his clothes conscientiously.

After he finished washing his clothes, he dried them up, and the food was already cold.

He poured the food into the pot again and heated it up, and Granny Pan took out the wowotou from the kitchen again.

"Thank you, mother-in-law." Gu Ziyuan said politely and took a bite of the nest. He knew that Granny Pan had something to say.

"Ziyuan, when you go to the academy in Fucheng in the future, combine work and rest, don't be tired of yourself." Granny Pan admonished.

"Mother-in-law, I think a manly husband should not be afraid of hardship or tiredness, tiredness should be, I can't be lazy, because I am a man, and I will stand up to the sky in the future." Gu Ziyuan said seriously.

The serious expression made Granny Pan's heart move, and she said, "Good son, have ambition." ”

At this time, Bai Rong had already packed his things, and when he saw that Gu Ziyuan had also finished eating, he waited for him to clean up the table, and said to Granny Pan: "Let's go to the county town there to buy something first, this matter still can't be reckless." ”

"Okay, you guys go, you must pay attention to safety, don't quarrel with people, so as not to suffer."

"Hmm."

The two agreed, and Granny Pan leaned against the door to watch them drift away.

When I arrived at the county seat, it was very lively, and there was an endless stream of merchants coming and going, which was much better than in a small village.

Gu Ziyuan saw a large group of people surrounding not far away, and wanted to pull Bai Rong and turn around and leave, but when he heard the sound of scolding, his cold eyes narrowed dangerously, and said, "Let's go and have a look." ”

Even if Gu Ziyuan can't do anything, he knows that he is weak, but he can't get used to seeing others being bullied.

"You're going to check it out?" Bai Rong whispered.

In fact, she didn't dislike Gu Ziyuan for looking at these things, but felt that it was a good thing to fight and uphold justice.

Squeezed into the crowd and pushed to the front, only to see a fat-headed and big-eared man, holding a painting in his hand, talking endlessly.

The stall was for the sale of paintings, and a thin man was arguing with a red face, a look of humiliated resentment.

"Tell you, what do you see in the painting, I don't think it's a painting, it's like a chicken paw drawing." Said the pot-bellied man.
